Recently, several vessels from a certain unit of the Eastern Theater Command Navy, including the Anqing and Dongguan ships, cast off their moorings and set sail for a certain area in the East China Sea to conduct live-fire training exercises focusing on air defense and missile defense, as well as close-range fire counterattack. This training aims to test the combat effectiveness of the vessels and the tactical and technical proficiency of the personnel, enhancing the fleet's coordinated response and precision strike capabilities.
